| Did you hear the scream? |
I GOT MY JOB!!! Woo hoo*
So we're off to the nation's capital next year - not sure if they're ready, but I'm giving notice :-)
When my brain returns to earth, I will then start the fun logistics stuff:
- Spring clean house
- Finish this semester
- Have a big goodbye party (or 3)
- Find somewhere to live
*Did I mention that I actually wanted this job?
**Or that I received 15 text messages saying 'I told you so'? |

| What I learned today |
- It takes 3 kettles worth of hot water to fill the kitchen sink
- When it is 10deg outside - it is not possible to have a cold shower without becoming a human icicle
- Hair that is not washed by 11am adopts its own persona - visually approximating a birds nest after chicks have hatched
- Not being able to shower makes me very grumpy >:-|
- Possibly the sweetest words are - the plumber is running early - can he come now instead of later this afternoon?
